Miracles of Saint Anthony of Padua
Preface
Perhaps no saint, after our Blessed Lady and Saint Joseph, is more poular and venerated than the great Saint Anthony of Padua.
Although in many lands, owing to revolution and persecution, the Franciscan churches where the devotion to this great saint first began have been destroyed, it sill remains as flourishing as ever, and every year thousands in all parts of the world make the nine Tuesdays in his honor.
It cannot, therefore, be doubted that the following anecdotes, derived from reliable sources, will not only interest the devout clients of Saint Anthony, but will also strengthen and encourage them to still greater confidence in his powerful intercession.
